Randfontein notes on drawings & surveys
As-built drawings are common when a Randfontein house is sold: owners find a lounge, carport or flat was added without council approval, and the buyer's bond attorney asks for plans. Extension plans for enclosed stoeps and garage conversions are the next biggest request. Some small farms near Randgate and the airfield also need layouts for sheds and worker housing, drawn over a surveyed boundary.
Homes and buildings in Randfontein
Randfontein is a West Rand mining town where older houses in Greenhills and around Main Reef Road sit on large stands, and new building is pushed towards Mohlakeng, Toekomsrus and the smallholdings out towards Westonaria. Most requests are for extensions to brick houses from the 1960s and 1970s, backyard rooms for rent, and first-time plans for stands in the newer extensions. Old gold workings, slimes dams and dolomite pockets mean the ground varies from street to street, so a drawing often starts with what the engineer finds on the stand. Local draughtspersons and a few Krugersdorp offices draw most of the work.
Typical floor plan drawing requests in the area come from:
- Families building a new house: a tidy scaled plan of the family house to test furniture, cupboards and a new layout
- Owners adding or changing rooms: an accurate drawing of the existing rooms to plan walls, doors and a kitchen move
- Rental and granny flat investors: a neat plan of a rental room or flat to compare layouts and brief a contractor
- Estate agents, sellers and landlords: a clear, scaled plan of a property redrawn from a quick measure on viewing day
- Farms, smallholdings and rural homesteads: a drawing of a farmhouse or workers' cottage for repairs, with outbuildings placed on the stand
- Developers and builders: clean typical unit layouts redrawn from site sketches before the full design starts
Local tips for Randfontein
Popular here: extensions to older brick houses, backyard rooms and as-built plans for sales. Ask each draughtsperson about this: ask whether your stand sits near old workings before the foundation is drawn. Who does the work: local draughtspersons in town, architects mostly from Krugersdorp and Roodepoort.
Jobs range from one room to a whole house. Here, families building a new house lead the requests, typically for a tidy scaled plan of the family house to test furniture, cupboards and a new layout. One local point to raise: old mine workings, slimes dams and dolomite pockets: ask for a geotechnical report.
What to include in your request
- Photos of your sketch, taken square-on
- The address or suburb, for site visit costs
- Whether room sizes are measured or estimated
- What the drawing is for: layout, listing or council
- The file formats you need, PDF or CAD
The more detail you give, the more accurate your quote will be. The brief below sketches the rooms and works out a floor area for you.
